It's interesting how no one has responded to this.

actually david copperfield also made the eifel tower disappear INFRONT of people{a whole city in this case}

he also levitates{actually flies which is a lot more impressive than criss's levitation} INFRONT of people, and 3d rings are rotated around him in a geometrical way which is impossible to do were there any wires etc} INFRONT of people, and yet, hes a las vegas showman. he admits that its all trickery and the MAGIC is in trying to see people unable to make sense of it and be amazed.

leonidas you dont actually believe david copperfield is a WITCH do you?

oooh nice itachi sig!

I realize that its magic. Rather, he's debunking the "camera edits" idea. He's fooling the hundreds of people a different way.

i admit, it cud be just camera edits or hiring actors in places of the PEOPLE you think in the show. but hiring that many doesnt seem too practical, although it wudnt be the most unheard trick in the history of showmanship either.

camera edits are exactly what used....he does the basic trick with platforms in the pool infront of people

he then cuts it with other footage filmed later (ie with wires with the woman swimming under him) laces the whole thing together with the sound from the "real" peoples reactions

the trick is on the viewer of the programme more than the people in the pool

as for fooling hundreds of people...there's maybe 20 around that pool at most

dont get me wrong...i'm not saying it isn't entertaining to watch...but it's better on tv than it is in the flesh because its edited to be that way

The sound is a bit shit. You can hear people saying 'How is he doing that?!' in a foolish manner.

Woo! Magic! jam

A magician is someone who preforms magic tricks in prospects of amusing an audience.

Are you amused by Criss Angel MindFreak? Of course you are.
Were you cheated, fooled or tricked while watching it? Of course you were.
Then job well done, Criss Angel.

People who say "He's a fake!" or "I'm not buying it."..exactly what do you expect? Magical powers? Magicians aren't sorcerer's, they're illusionist's. And just because you figured out one trick with your TVO doesn't mean anything.

OK but where did all the people come from? Are we supposed to assume they were all behind the hummer?

They could all have easily stood in single/double line in front or behind the car which would still let him cover them all with his body.

the problem is that there seems to be people here who genuinely believe its not staged and that they really are using magic powers

No, we're supposed to assume they were already in position, we just couldnt see them because they're invisible.

Whats this shadow coming from then?

That can only be used so many times until you're just an ass.
